I'm running macOS Mojave 10.14.6. I have the following relevant lines in ~/.bash_profile:
export PATH="$HOME/.jenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(jenv init -)"
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-12.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home
I don't have a competing .bashrc file or anything else in my home directory. After I last updated that file I quit and reopened Terminal and got:
...$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/Users/myusername/.jenv/versions/system
...$ export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-12.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home
...$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/Users/myusername/.jenv/versions/system
I assume this is caused by the second line in my .bash_profile; I don't remember why I added it and am hesitant to remove it without knowing what I'm doing. I don't know why manually rewriting the variable in the terminal doesn't work either.
Either way, my goal is to be able to run maven in the terminal, and when I do I get
...$ mvn -v
The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program
NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE
Any idea what's going on?
If you are using JEnv for managing JDKs. Then you must enable JEnv's maven plugin also enable Export plugin. Don't set JAVA_HOME mannuly, JEnv will manage it for you.
Run the following commands and try.
jenv enable-plugin export
jenv enable-plugin maven

Your JAVA_HOME is invalid: "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_25"
I've also tried using JAVA_HOME without the quotes. What's going on?
#cubrr gave the correct answer in the comments. The error message being produced by Cordova is extremely misleading: the problem isn't that JAVA_HOME was incorrect, but that javac wasn't on my path. This was made all the more confusing by the fact that java was on my path, so when I checked it gave correct results. This is because the Oracle installer adds a directory to your path (c:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath) that contains links to java.exe and related programs but not the relevant JDK programs.
1) set > system variables > path to
`;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xxx\bin;`
2) create new JAVA_HOME path with the value
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xxx
now check javac version by issuing command at CMD
javac -version
*** don't touch the oracle - "C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;" path
If you are running windows 10, you need to restart your computer after changing the path and other variables. Possibly also on earlier windows versions.
I just installed JDK in Ubuntu with sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk command,
after the installation where's the Java bin directory located? And how can I set the environment path for that directory? I have little experience with Ubuntu, can anyone give some advice or suggest any good website for reference?
set environment variables as follows
Edit the system Path file /etc/profile
sudo gedit /etc/profile
Add following lines in end
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export JAVA_HOME
export JRE_HOME
export PATH
Then Log out and Log in ubuntu for setting up the paths...
Java is typically installed in /usr/java
locate the version you have and then do the following:
Assuming you are using bash (if you are just starting off, i recommend bash over other shells) you can simply type in bash to start it.
Edit your ~/.bashrc file and add the paths as follows:
for eg. vi ~/.bashrc
insert following lines:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/<your version of java>
export PATH=${PATH}:${JAVA_HOME}/bin
after you save the changes, exit and restart your bash or just type in bash to start a new shell
Type in export to ensure paths are right.
Type in java -version to ensure Java is accessible.
Ubuntu installs openjdk6 to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk path. So you will have the bin in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin. Usually the classpath is automatically set for the java & related executables.
To Set JAVA_HOME / PATH for a single user, Login to your account and open .bash_profile file
$ vi ~/.bash_profile
Set JAVA_HOME as follows using syntax export JAVA_HOME=<path-to-java>. If your path is set to /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin/java, set it as follows:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin/java
Set PATH as follows:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin
Feel free to replace /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07 as per your setup. Save and close the file. Just logout and login back to see new changes. Alternatively, type the following command to activate the new path settings immediately:
$ source ~/.bash_profile
OR
$ . ~/.bash_profile
Verify new settings:
$ echo $JAVA_HOME
$ echo $PATH
Tip: Use the following command to find out exact path to which java executable under UNIX / Linux:
$ which java
Please note that the file ~/.bashrc is similar, with the exception that ~/.bash_profile runs only for Bash login shells and .bashrc runs for every new Bash shell.
To Set JAVA_HOME / PATH for all user, You need to setup global config in /etc/profile OR /etc/bash.bashrc file for all users:
# vi /etc/profile
Next setup PATH / JAVA_PATH variables as follows:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin
Save and close the file. Once again you need to type the following command to activate the path settings immediately:
# source /etc/profile
OR
# . /etc/profile
You need to set the $JAVA_HOME variable.
In my case while setting up Maven, I had to set it up to where JDK is installed.
First find out where JAVA is installed:
$ whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
Now dig deeper:
$ ls -l /usr/bin/java
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Aug 25 2018 /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
Dig deeper:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6464 Mar 14 18:28 /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
As it is not being referenced to any other directory, we'll use this.
Open /etc/environment using nano:
$ sudo nano /etc/environment
Append the following lines
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
export JAVA_HOME
Reload PATH using:
$. /etc/environment
Now:
$ echo $JAVA_HOME
Here is your output:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
Sources I referred to:
https://askubuntu.com/a/175519
https://stackoverflow.com/a/23427862/6297483
if you have intalled only openJDK, the you should update your links, because you can have some OpenJDK intallation.
sudo update-alternatives --config java
after this
$gedit ~/.bashrc
add the following line in the file
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/YOUR_JAVA_VERSION
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export JAVA_HOME
you can get you java version with
java -version
Open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+t)
Type
sudo gedit .bashrc
Enter password of ubuntu user
Go to last line of the file
Type below code in new line
export JAVA_HOME=enter_java_path_here
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
eg: export JAVA_HOME=/home/pranav/jdk1.8.0_131
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
Save the file
Type
source ~/.bashrc
in terminal
Done
To set up system wide scope you need to use the
/etc/environment file sudo gedit /etc/environment
is the location where you can define any environment variable. It can be visible in the whole system scope. After variable is defined system need to be restarted.
EXAMPLE :
sudo gedit /etc/environment
Add like following :
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games"
JAVA_HOME="/opt/jdk1.6.0_45/"

How to install java packages:
Install desired java version / versions using official ubuntu packages, which are managed using alternatives:
sudo apt install -y openjdk-8-jdk
or/and other version:
sudo apt install -y openjdk-11-jdk
Above answers are correct only when you have only one version for all software on your machine, and you can skip using update-alternatives. So one can quickly hardcode it in .bashrc or some other place:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
but it's not healthy, as later on you may change the version.
Correct way to set JAVA_HOME (and optionally JAVA_SDK, JAVA_JRE )
The correct way (and mandatory when you have more than one), is to detect what update-alternative is pointing to, and always use update-alternatives to switch active version.
Here are the suggestions for both: only specific unix account or for all accounts (machine level).
1. for a specific unix account only:
Use this if you don't have permissions to do it at machine level.
cat <<'EOF' >>~/.bashrc
export JAVA_HOME=$(update-alternatives --query java | grep Value | cut -d" " -f2 | sed 's!\(\/.*\)jre\(.*\)!\1!g')
export JDK_HOME=${JAVA_HOME}
export JRE_HOME=${JDK_HOME}/jre/
EOF
2. To do it at machine level, and for all bourne shells, you need 2 steps:
2.a
cat <<'EOF' | sudo tee /etc/profile.d/java_home_env.sh >/dev/null
export JAVA_HOME=$(update-alternatives --query java | grep Value | cut -d" " -f2 | sed 's!\(\/.*\)jre\(.*\)!\1!g')
export JDK_HOME=${JAVA_HOME}
export JRE_HOME=${JDK_HOME}/jre/
EOF
As your shell might not be set as interactive by default, you may want to do this also:
2.b
cat <<'EOF' | sudo tee -a /etc/bash.bashrc >/dev/null
if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then
for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
if [ -r $i ]; then
. $i
fi
done
unset i
fi
EOF
PS: There should be no need to update the $PATH, as update-alternatives takes care of the link to /usr/bin/.
More on: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/update-alternatives.8.html
It should put java in your path, probably in /usr/bin/java. The easiest way to find it is to open a term and type which java.
Create/Open ~/.bashrc file $vim ~/.bashrc
Add JAVA_HOME and PATH as referring to your JDK path
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/<your version of java>
export PATH=${PATH}:${JAVA_HOME}/bin
Save file
Now type java -version it should display what you set in .bashrc file.
This will persist over sessions as well.
Example :
Update bashrc file to add JAVA_HOME
sudo nano ~/.bashrc
Add JAVA_HOME to bashrc file.
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/<your version of java>
export PATH=${PATH}:${JAVA_HOME}/bin
Ensure Java is accessible
java -version
In Case of Manual installation of JDK, If you got an error as shown below
Error occurred during initialization of VM
java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object
Execute the following command in your JAVA_HOME/lib directory:
unpack200 -r -v -l "" tools.pack tools.jar
Execute the following commands in your JAVA_HOME/jre/lib
../../bin/unpack200 rt.pack rt.jar
../../bin/unpack200 jsse.pack jsse.rar
../../bin/unpack200 charsets.pack charsets.jar
Ensure Java is accessible
java -version
I have a Linux Lite 3.8 (It bases on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) and a path change in the following file (with root privileges) with restart has helped.
/etc/profile.d/jdk.sh
Step1:
sudo gedit ~/.bash_profile
Step2:
JAVA_HOME=/home/user/tool/jdk-8u201-linux-x64/jdk1.8.0_201
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export JAVA_HOME
export JRE_HOME
export PATH
Step3:
source ~/.bash_profile
Let me simplify:
download JDK from Oracle Website : Link
Extract it
Create a folder (jvm) in /usr/lib/ i.e /usr/lib/jvm
move the extracted folder from the jdk to /usr/lib/jvm/
*Note : use terminal, sudo, mv command i.e. sudo mv
Create a .sh file at /etc/profile.d/ eg: /etc/profile.d/myenvvar.sh
In the .sh file type
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
*Note : use terminal, gedit and sudo eg: sudo gedit myenvvar.sh
Turn Off the Computer, after all these steps and Restart it
Open Terminal , and type
java -version
Check the output , then type
echo $JAVA_HOME
Once I've installed the openjdk version of the Java Development Kit on an Ubuntu machine, I use this procedure to create a JAVA_HOME environment variable that doesn't need to be changed after every version upgrade of the openjdk installation.
Firstly, I issue a command to discover the directory in which the java executables are located for this java installation.
echo $(readlink -e `which java` | xargs -0 dirname)
If I'm happy with the output from that, everything else can be derived from it.
Configuring the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables
Rather than adding more and more configurations to the ~/.bashrc file I've found it a cleaner practice to create a separate small file that ~/.bashrc can "include" when it runs.
Let's call that file ~/.java_env_vars (but you could name it whatever you wish).
Add an "include condition" to the ~/.bashrc file
Open ~/.bashrc in any text editor and these lines to the end of the file:
# include the java environment configuration file here (if it exists)
if [ -f "$HOME/.java_env_vars" ]; then
. $HOME/.java_env_vars
fi
Create the Java environment variable configuration file
Open any text editor, create the Java environment configuration file ~/.java_env_vars and add this content to it:
#1. set a java_bin variable to the directory containing the actual Java executables.
java_bin=$(readlink -e `which java` | xargs -0 dirname)
#2. append "$java_bin" to the PATH environment variable
export PATH=$PATH:"$java_bin"
#3. assign the directory of the current Java installation to the JAVA_HOME environment variable.
export JAVA_HOME=$(dirname "$java_bin")
NOTE: exporting the PATH and JAVA_HOME variables just ensures that they're always available wherever they're needed.
Source your ~/.bashrc file (so that the changes you made to it are reflected) using the following command:
source ~/.bashrc
Test the Java environment variable configuration
Open a new terminal console, and test the new Java environment variables by issuing this command:
echo "$PATH" && echo "$JAVA_HOME"
Output should be two lines, something like this:
/home/user/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin
/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
All you have to do now is to set the “JAVA_HOME” and “PATH” environment variables and then you are done. Enter the following commands to set your environment variables. Make sure that your environment variables point to a valid installation of JDK on your machine. For Ubuntu 18.04, the path is /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
To check whether your JAVA_HOME path has been successfully saved, enter the following command to check.
echo $JAVA_HOME
Open file /etc/environment with a text editor
Add the line JAVA_HOME="[path to your java]"
Save and close then run source /etc/environment
Set java version from the list of installed. For see the list of the installed version run following command:
update-java-alternatives --list
Then set your java version according to the following command:
sudo update-java-alternatives --set /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
open jdk once installed resides generally in your /usr/lib/java-6-openjdk
As usual you would need to set the JAVA_HOME, classpath and Path.
In ubuntu 11.04 there is a environment file available in /etc where you need to set all the three paths. And then you would need to restart your system for the changes to take effect..
Here is a site to help you around
http://aliolci.blogspot.com/2011/05/ubuntu-1104-set-new-environment.html
Once JDK installed set the JAVA_HOME in environment
sudo nano /etc/environment and add the line JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-11.0.1/"
Add the configuration in .bashrc
sudo nano ~/.bashrc and add following lines
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-11.0.11/
PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
refresh the new configuration with source ~/.bashrc
enter the command java -version and you can see the version installed on your machine
You can install the default Ubuntu(17.10) java from apt:
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk-headless
And it will set the PATH for you, if instead you need to install specific version of Java you can follow this YouTube
I installed java 11 in my Ubuntu 20.04. Setting up a JAVA_HOME for the same.
enter the this command to find out your ubuntu version --
swapnil#swapnil-vm:~$ lsb_release -d
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
enter this command to find out the location of your jvm --
swapnil#swapnil-vm:~$ whereis jvm
jvm: /usr/lib/jvm
open .bashrc in any editor of your choice --
nano .bashrc
add the following lines --
## setting JAVA_HOME
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
export JAVA_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export PATH
now you are good to go!!
open a new terminal and enter the command --
ehco $JAVA_HOME
Use the following lines to set the path variables in the /etc/environment
echo export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java | sudo tee -a /etc/environment
echo export JRE_HOME=/path/to/jre | sudo tee -a /etc/environment
It should work.
Note:
You should reboot the system for changes to take effect.
Installation of Oracle Java:
Download the tarball (.tar file) from Oracle website
unzip it by sudo tar -xvpzf fileName -C /installation_folder_name
change the files permission and ownership
add the following two lines in /etc/profile
export JAVA_HOME=/home/abu/Java/jdk1.8.0_45/
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
restart the machine and check by java -version and javac -version
First, check whether env var exists or not
echo $JAVA_HOME
if an env var exists with that name then the above command will return the env var Path. if it's return nothing then copy the env path first then execute below command. such as my java env path is /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
When trying to run gradle, I get the following error:
# gradle
ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory: /usr/lib/jvm/default-java
Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation.
However, when I check the JAVA_HOME variable I get:
# echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle
My JAVA_HOME is defined in .bashrc and I have double checked that it is set as the source.
Running java -version also confirms that JAVA_HOME is set correctly and is on the PATH.
# java -version
java version "1.7.0_51"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)
I have also checked that /usr/bin/java symlinks to /etc/alternatives/java which in turn correctly symlinks to /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java
Additionally I've checked that there are no duplicate JAVA_HOME definitions in .bash_profile or /etc/profile.
So my question is how/why does Gradle find /usr/lib/jvm/default-java, and more importantly how do I point it to the correct directory?
Other programs which require the JDK work fine, so I think its a Gradle issue. I've also tried reinstalling Gradle which made no difference.
I'm running 64bit Xubuntu (Ubuntu 13.10 base)
Turns out that the particular Gradle binary I downloaded from the Ubuntu 13.10 repository itself tries to export JAVA_HOME. Thanks to Lucas for suggesting this.
/usr/bin/gradle line 70:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java
Commenting this line out solves the problem, and Gradle finds the correct path to the Java binary.
If you just download the binary from their website it does not have this problem,
It's an issue with the Ubuntu repo version. There also seem to be some other issues with 13.10 version.
add a symbolic link
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle /usr/lib/jvm/default-java
Solution is to make JAVA_HOME == dir above bin where javac lives as in
type javac
javac is /usr/bin/javac # now check if its just a symlink
ls -la /usr/bin/javac
/usr/bin/javac -> /etc/alternatives/javac # its a symlink so check again
ls -la /etc/alternatives/javac # now check if its just a symlink
/etc/alternatives/javac -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac
OK so finally found the bin above actual javac so do this
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
above can be simplified and generalized to
which javac >/dev/null 2>&1 || die "ERROR: no 'javac' command could be found in your PATH"
export JAVA_HOME=$(dirname $(dirname $(readlink -f $(which javac) )))
For me this error was due to the reason Gradle as installed as sudo and I was trying as default user to run Gradle.
Try:
sudo gradle -version
or
sudo gradle -v
In my Ubuntu, I have a headache for 2 days on this issue.
Step 1. Type on the terminal whereis java
then it will display something like this
java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/share/java /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
Step 2. Take note of the path:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/java
exclude the bin/java
your JAVA_HOME = /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
Did you export your JAVA_HOME? Without export, the setting will not be propagated to the commands started inside of that shell. Also, java -version does not use JAVA_HOME, rather it uses the first java found in your path. Make sure your .bashrc looks something like this:
JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java/home
export JAVA_HOME
Try installing latest version of gradle,
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cwchien/gradle
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gradle
If we install from ubuntu repo, it will install the old version , (for me it was gradle 1.4). In older version, it sets java home from gradle as export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java. Latest version don't have this issue.
I faced this issue when I run the following command on Ubuntu:
ionic build android
To solve this issue, I did the following steps:
ln -sf /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java /usr/lib/jvm/default-java
Add JAVA_HOME to /etc/environment:
vi /etc/environment
Add:
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/default-java"
After saving, read it:
source /etc/environment
Finally, you can run build command.
I had the same problem, but I didnt find export command in line 70 in gradle file for the latest version 2.13, but I understand a silly mistake there, that is following,
If you don't find line 70 with export command in gradle file in your gradle folder/bin/ , then check your ~/.bashrc, if you find export JAVA_HOME==/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/java, then remove /bin/java from this line, like JAVA_HOME==/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64, and it in path>>> instead of this export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:JAVA_HOME/, it will be export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:JAVA_HOME/bin/java. Then run source ~/.bashrc.
The reason is, if you check your gradle file, you will find in line 70 (if there's no export command) or in line 75,
JAVACMD="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java"
fi
if [ ! -x "$JAVACMD" ] ; then
die "ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory: $JAVA_HOME
That means /bin/java is already there, so it needs to be substracted from JAVA_HOME path.
That happened in my case.
I have tested this on Manjaro Linux. Should work on other Disto too.
You need to include whole java-jdk dir instead of just java/bin for java env var.
For example, instead of:
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk-14.0.2/bin #change path according to your jdk location
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME
use this:
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk-14.0.2/ #change path according to your jdk location
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME
then run the gradle command it will work.
You can also go to the bin folder inside your gradle installation folder and correct the JAVA_HOME parameter in gradle.bat file.
In my case, my JAVA_HOME was set to c:\Program files\java\bin
The JAVA_HOME in gradle.bat was set to %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe.
I corrected the JAVA_HOME in gradle.bat and it worked.
Thank you!!!
Before running the command try entering:
export JAVA_HOME="path_to_java_home"
Where path_to_java_home is the folder where your bin/java is.
If java is properly installed you can find it's location, by using the command:
readlink -f $(which java)
Don't forget to remove bin/java from the end of the path while putting it into JAVA_HOME
For me an explicit set on the arguments section of the external tools configuration in Eclipse was the problem.
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre /usr/lib/jvm/default-java
Create a symbolic link to the default-java directory.
You can find your java directory by
readlink -f $(which java)
# outputs: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java
# Remove the last `/bin/java` and use it in above symbolic link command.
I had a problem with this too. It said wrong directory when it was correct. So I just created a local variable with the name of JAVA_HOME omitting the final /bin/java. It worked fine for me.
If your GRADLE_HOME and JAVA_HOME environment are set properly then check your JDK directory and make sure you have java.exe file under below path.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_181\bin
As error mentioned in gradle.bat file
:findJavaFromJavaHome
set JAVA_HOME=%JAVA_HOME:"=%
set JAVA_EXE=%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java.exe
if exist "%JAVA_EXE%" goto init
echo.
echo ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory: %JAVA_HOME%
echo.
echo Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
echo location of your Java installation.
It is not able to locate your java installation. So find and set
java.exe
under %JAVA_HOME%/bin if everything is correct.
This works for me (my account got disabled by client and their admin has removed java.exe from my directory.)
[Windows] As already said, it looks like .bat -file tries to find java.exe from %JAVA_HOME%/bin/java.exe so it doesn't find it since bin is repeated twice in path.
Remov that extra /bin from gradle.bat.
In my dockercontainer (being minimal the problem of not finding java) was, that "which" was not installed. Comipling a project using gradlew used which in ./gradlew to find java
Installing which solved the problem.
Adding below lines in build.gradle solved my issue .
sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
#ISSUE:GradleException: javaConfig.targetVersion is Java 8, but the environment variable JAVA8_HOME does not exist
I think this is how you fix it in IntelliJ. I've run into it a couple times as I choose "Launch in New Window" for a new project but I haven't written down the steps yet.
1.File -> Project Structure. Project Settings / Project. Make sure Project SDK and Project language level are correct.
2.Preferences. Build, Execution, Deployment / Build Tools / Gradle. Make sure Gradle JVM is correct.
You may have to restart IntelliJ after this.
NOW it SOLVED THE ISSUE
Task :prepareKotlinBuildScriptModel UP-TO-DATE
Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 8.0.
You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.
See https://docs.gradle.org/7.3.3/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings
BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 22s
I am trying to install a local version of the Validator.nu server and it keeps failing on trying to build the HTML Parser.
It says it can't find the JAVA_HOME variable which I have set in my .bashrc file and shows correctly when I type "echo $JAVA_HOME" at the prompt
Ideas appreciated thanks

Error: The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not set.
Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the pathname of the directory where your JDK is installed.
Instead of:
$ sudo python build/build.py all
try:
$ sudo -E python build/build.py all
The sudo command for security reasons resets the environment (so your JAVA_HOME for the python process is wiped out even when it's exported). The "sudo -E" will preserve the environment.
I assume (from tag) you use ubuntu.
list versions of installed javas in your system:
dave#ubuntu:~$ update-java-alternatives --list
java-6-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
Note, that if you set JAVA_HOME in ~/.bashrc it will be set only in your terminal sessions.
Unless you export it, it will be set only for your current shell process (not subprocesses like mercurial).
add line to your .bashrc:
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk"
open a new terminal and test it:
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version && echo java seen by bash
bash -c '$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version && echo java seen by bash subprocesses'
If you want to set environment for all processes (not only started by hand from terminal), you can:
dave#ubuntu:~$ sudo $EDITOR /etc/environment
After tackling this for the last 4 days I have managed to get the validator.nu server running on my local Ubuntu VM and so I thought I would update this thread in case anyone else runs in to the same issues.
I am still not 100% sure where the original issue with the JAVA_HOME variable was coming from but I suspect (although I am not an expert at this) that it had something to do with the way I was using sudo to run the python build.
I was initially following the instructions on http://about.validator.nu/#src but using
$ sudo python build/build.py all
This was because part of the build needed the correct permissions to work.
This is my step-by-step process which starts from a clean install of Ubuntu 11.
installed ubuntu 11
opened the terminal
sudo /bin/bash <----------- I THINK THIS IS THE CRUCIAL LINE
apt-get install mercurial
apt-get install subversion
apt-get install openjdk-6-jre
apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
follow rest of http://about.validator.nu/#src instructions
I'm going to need to do it again when I set this up for the internal network for our build scripts so i'll edit this if I've missed out on anything.
Hope this saves another person's headache and lost days!
